Thanks to all.
I started this clump with three or four seedlings about six years ago, in 2009 I had to transplant and split it as it became to large and started to cover some smaller Oncos. Divisions of those are now growing in several countries. :)
As it is still more beautiful with a bit of sunshine:

I suppose you mean the leaves of Iris unguicularis subsp. cretensis.  ;)
Found recently some Oncoseedlings on my footpath - will be all pure species, but I will have to wait their flower to know to which species they belong.

Hans - The first onco seed I ever germinated was one I found on the path 10 days after sowing and 2 or 3 days after a thunder storm

Glorious, Hans.  Good luck with the Onco seedlings in your footpath.  Amazing to have them so happily seeding, or do you mean that you dropped some seed that you'd brought in?
Cheers.
